Japanese Garden, Monaco

See more Gardens. See best of Monaco

This enchanting garden, designed by the landscape architect Yasuo Beppu, covers 23,000 square feet right next to the Mediterranean Sea and a short distance from the casino. In an area that is kind of out of the way, it was indeed a gem waiting to be discovered right in the middle of skyscrapers and very exotic car dealerships.

With its koi pond, waterfalls, rocks, bridges, pine and olive trees, it continued to seduce me into what was next. The natural stones were carefully chosen according to their shape, color and size. The bamboo fences, Tea House, stone lanterns, tiles and wooden gates were all made in Japan and brought me back to Japan while I was strolling along.
